Desk to Drinks: Striped Pencil Skirt

Day and Night: J.Crew Factory Pencil Skirt

Having rekindled my love for pencil skirts, I wanted to show you two ways to wear one of the striped variety.  It may seem a little plain Jane, but the classic cut and print makes it much easier to spice up.  For starters, I added a splash of mixed prints for the desk (floral and stripes is my go-to combo).  I also love the clean lines of this black satchel and this open gold cuff.  And things get a little sultry for drinks, with a dark burgundy cami and a gorgeous leopard clutch.  Either way you style it, they’re both anything but boring!

Currently Craving: Black & White

Black and White Summer Essentials

It looks like New York might finally be rubbing off on me.  This summer, I’ve been gravitating toward more neutrals than neons.  I’m especially loving the high contrast between black and white.  I know it’s not earth-shattering, but in a season full of brights and bolds, it’s refreshing to tune out the noise and keep things simple and sharp.  I recently picked up this black and white striped dress and have my eye on these crocodile print shorts.  What monochromatic pieces are you currently craving?

Tribal Trip

Tribal Print Pom Pom Shorts

It’s Monday, so while it’s back to the grind in the office, I can guarantee you that my mind is wandering elsewhere.  Maybe reminiscing about my tropical vacation in May … maybe planning my upcoming week in Arizona next month … maybe I’m just wearing these tribal print pom pom shorts, because it’s the closest I can get to feeling like I’m off on a trip somewhere. Just maybe.
